2 GENERAL

Depending on your place of residence, consumer protection laws may impose mandatory promises from us to you and may prevent exclusions or limits from applying to certain types of liability. To such extent, nothing in these Terms will take precedence over those laws and you will still have your rights under those laws despite the limitations stated below.

2.1 Limitation of liability

Any information contained in the Service is intended for general information purposes only. We make reasonable efforts to provide information that is accurate at the time of inclusion, but there may be errors or omissions.

Unless and to the extent only that the following exclusions are incapable of exclusion by applicable law, the Service and all its features are used by you at your risk and are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis without any guarantees, warranties, representations, terms or conditions of any kind (whether express or implied by legislation or operation of law).

To the fullest extent permitted by law: (a) we disclaim all guarantees, warranties, representations, terms and conditions of any kind (express or implied) in relation to the Service (and/or any products, content or services made available on or via the Service) and, for example, we do not give any assurance that the Service will be available at all or at any times or that the Service or Content will be error-free, uninterrupted or secure;

(b) neither we nor any of our affiliates, licensors, suppliers, successors and assignees or our or their respective officers, employees, agents or contractors (together, the “GPS Parties” and each, a “GPS Party”) shall be liable to you for any indirect, special or consequential loss that is suffered or incurred by you in connection with your use of, or inability to use, the Service, and that constitutes wasted management or office time and/or loss of income, business, profits, contracts, anticipated savings, data and/or goodwill; and

(c) in particular, no GPS Party shall be liable for any damage to your equipment or any computer software or system or loss of data or of other content that may result from the download, installation and/or use of any material or software accessed via or for use of the Service, nor does any GPS Party endorse, warrant or guarantee any third-party product, content or service offered via the Service, nor will any GPS Party be a party to (or in any way be responsible for monitoring) any transaction between you and third-party providers of products, content or services.

However:

(i) Some jurisdictions may not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain guarantees, warranties, representations, terms or conditions. Where that is the case (and to such extent), the exclusions and limitations of liability in these Terms may not apply to you.

(ii) Nothing in these Terms in any way limits any GPS Party’s liability to you for: (A) death or personal injury caused by such GPS Party’s negligence; (B) fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; (C) any deliberate repudiatory breaches of these Terms by such GPS Party; (D) any loss or damage (whether financial or otherwise) that is a direct and foreseeable result of any breach of these Terms on such GPS Party’s part; (E) any breach by such GPS Party of any provisions implied into these Terms by applicable law; and/or (F) any other liability (such as gross negligence or wilful misconduct) to the extent that such liability cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.

(iii) NOTHING IN THESE TERMS AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS AS A CONSUMER UNDER LAW. If you would like information on such rights, you should contact your local trading standards service or citizens’ advice bureau.

2.2 Other services

2.2.1 Third-party services. No GPS Party is responsible or liable for any products, content or services provided by or for third parties via or in connection with the Service (or any technical or other issues that may arise from such provision). We have no control over third-party products, content or services and make no assurances of any kind about them.

2.2.2 Links. No GPS Party is responsible for any links to third-party sites (or pages or content of or made available via any such third-party site) that may be provided on the Service by us or by any user of the Service. Such links do not constitute endorsements by any GPS Party. We have no control over the content of linked sites and make no assurances of any kind about third-party sites.

You may link to the home page of the Service only, as long as you do so in a way that is fair and legal and does not damage our reputation or take advantage of it, but you must not establish a link in such a way as to suggest any form of association, approval or endorsement on our part where none exists.

You must not establish a link from any website that is not owned by you. The Service must not be framed on any other website, nor may you create a link to any part of the Service other than the home page. We reserve the right to withdraw linking permission without notice. The website from which you are linking must comply in all respects with the content standards set out in these Terms.

2.3 Best practice

As part of a global company operating in many markets and territories, we are committed to respecting national laws, any other relevant laws with an international reach and industry codes of conduct. We are a member of the Market Research Society and are committed to observing its guidelines for best practice in conducting market research. For further information please see our Code of Business Conduct [RICHARD DO YOU HAVE THIS, OR HOGARTHS?], which contains certain non-contractual statements on our and our affiliates’ behalf.

2.4 Suspension and termination

We may, at our discretion, suspend or terminate the provision of any part of the Service or restrict your access to it without any prior notice to you where, for example: (a) we reasonably consider that you are acting in breach of any of these Terms; (b) there is a regulatory or statutory change limiting our ability to provide such part of the Service; and/or (c) any event beyond our reasonable control prevents us from continuing to provide such part of the Service (such as technical difficulties or communications failures).

2.5 Changes to these Terms

We reserve the right to make changes to any part of the Service and/or to these Terms from time to time. We will notify you of any changes to these Terms by posting the modified Terms on the Service (including the date on which these Terms were last modified). If you use the Service after we have posted such changes, you will, by continuing to use the Service, be agreeing to be bound by the modified Terms. If you do not agree to be bound by the modified Terms, you should not continue to use the Service.

2.6 Other important terms

Assignability. You may not assign, sub-license or otherwise dispose of any of your rights under these Terms.

Entire agreement. These Terms (including all provisions incorporated by reference in these Terms) contain the entire agreement, and supersede any previous agreement (whether oral or written), between you and us in relation to the subject-matter of these Terms. Nothing in these Terms shall limit or exclude any liability for fraud.

Prevalence. Except as otherwise specified in these Terms, in the event of any inconsistency between these Terms and any other terms and conditions referred to in these Terms, the provisions of these Terms shall prevail. For this purpose, however, an omission shall not be understood as giving rise to an inconsistency. For example, where these Terms are silent on (or do not specifically address) matters that are specifically addressed in any Additional Terms (as defined in the introduction to these Terms), the Additional Terms shall not be deemed to be inconsistent with the rest of these Terms.

Third-party rights. These Terms do not confer any rights or remedies on any person other than the parties to these Terms, except that any GPS Party may enforce any right or remedy expressly conferred on such GPS Party under these Terms.

Non-waiver. Failure to insist on strict performance of, or to exercise any right or remedy under, these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of that right or remedy and shall not relieve the defaulting party from compliance with such party’s obligations.

Severability. If any provision(s) of these Terms is found to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable by any court or other authority of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions will continue to be valid, lawful and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Language, governing law and jurisdiction. Some laws may require that these Terms be presented and enforceable in a language other than English, and/or may require that consumers have the right to bring or defend proceedings in their home state, in accordance with the mandatory rules of that state. In all other cases:

(a) the English-language version of these Terms shall prevail; and

(b) these Terms and any related dispute or claim (contractual or non-contractual) shall be governed by, and interpreted in accordance with, English law and subject to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts, and we reserve the right to bring any action in any other court of competent jurisdiction.
